suitability of Mac Mini for MC21

<< < (2/2)

I use the new Mini to run MC21 and I use it for both audio and video.  It works no problem.  My Mini is 16GB RAM, 3 GHz Intel Core i7 processor. 

I use screen share via bluetooth on my MacBook Pro to control the Mini. 

The only issue I have is that I use MC running on both the Mini and my MacBook Pro and the two seem to interfere with one another's volume settings.  Have tried to get some feedback on this from JRiver but no luck.

Hi, I use a 2013 Mac Mini, i7, 16GB RAM, 512 SSD I run it headless but can connect from my MacBook Pro or iPad ad iPhone but I tend to use JRemote to control MC 21.08 it works flawlessly and gives an impressive sound, go for it they are so cheap second-hand at the moment.  If you don't like it you should be easily able to sell the Mini for the price you paid for it but you won't sell it or regret it.

I too run MC21 on a MacMini, in fact I run it on the Mini twice, both natively under OSX 10.8 and in bootcamp with Windows 7. It has been running flawlessly in bootcamp but I still have a problem in OSX with quite a few BluRay rips. When I select subtitles there I only get the option to browse for them. That in itself is a bind, but even when I open the ".sub" file no subtitles appear. There are no such problems running MC21 in bootcamp on my Mini. The weird things is that not all BluRays are affected; a few do show subtitles.
